Research staff work across multiple studies within a small, tightly knit, and fun research team comprised of a program manager, program coordinators, research assistants, statisticians, and trainees (high school students, predoctoral interns, postdoctoral fellows).

Experience with database development and management within REDCap is preferred, but not required. Possibilities for upward advancement are possible, as are opportunities for presentation at scientific conferences.
